I have read a lot of people saying that it is nearly impossible to be competitive with ABS 0 on a DS3. Do you use ABS 0 because it's more fun than ABS 1? (I recall that you use a DS3. Sorry if I am wrong.)

I do use a DS3, with ABS 1. I had some problems with turn-in on this car, so I tried higher bias settings (6/9). I started noticing the wheel-lock while I was warming up for quali but didnt want to risk lowering the settings. The wheel-lock wouldnt be that big a deal on most tracks, but it kept ruining my entry/exit of turns 5/6 and translated into a ton of lost time in sector 2.
 
Great pictures! They really make the track look better.

Well thanks! I certainly try. It was more difficult than most on this track, as I mentioned. Heh.

Stunning pics, Longbow! 👍

Are you editing them before uploading them here? Just curious because I used to take pics for another series and for some reason, the pics went from :) to :grumpy: when I transferred them from my PS3 to my laptop.

Thanks. ^^ And yes, I do a quick once-over in PS before I upload them. And sometimes they look great on the screen and not-so-good on my laptop anyway. Believe me, if you saw the normal shots...Urp. Not pleasant.

:bowdown::bowdown:

Mind if I start up a Flickr account and post these there?

Heh, why thank you. And by all means! ^^ I believe the photos of Spa I did are on page 53 of this thread, if you want to add those, even though they're just practice. I'm very glad you like them though!
 
I wanted to see the standings (see how things worked out) and I found that I'm not there. I know I didn't race, but shouldn't there be a DNS or something? Or did I skip over my name while looking at the list? Or... is it something else? I'm a little confused and can't find anything that can help my problem.

Points standings? I may have put someone else's name over yours that took your place during the race. Not a big deal, you'd just be at the bottom with a 0 anyway. Once you do race, you'll be added to the list.

Oh ok. I know it's not a big deal, I'm just a very curious person. ;)
 
I'm not an alien anymore, but I think in practice races I was hitting high 2:04's. Averaging low :05's.
So says the guy who finished 2nd at Nurb F. :lol:

I do feel I'm in big trouble this weekend. Not only do I have to fear another disconnect, everyone seems to be hitting 2:04s now. I've tried going from 9/7 brake bias to 3/7 and my times haven't moved an inch. :indiff:

So it's not your bb, it's gotta be your line :) Don't make me go all sport psychologist on you. I think you're letting last weeks dnf weigh to heavily on your mind ;)

1:05.4 personal best for me on my first night back on the track :P God I feel slow. Worst part is knowing where I'm messing up but not physically remembering how to get the car to do what I want :P but I must say I really like the spec 2 and dlc :dopey:

Somewhat but I'm pretty sure no one will be happy that since I'll be missing Spa as well, the wild card is all but mine now. :lol:

Not bad for your first time. 👍

Like I said, consistent...not fast. ;)

And after two whole hours of fiddling with the damn button to get it to look right, and 9 variations of said button, we now have a flickr page. Yay.
 
hah, the only thing we need now is a linkedIn, last.fm, streetfire, and a myspace page xD
 
Just posted on FB page suggesting if pics and videos could be uploaded to the page. :) I dont have a capture card so videos arent an option. I could upload some pics to the group if its ok RT 👍

hahahahahah!

Brilliant!

Didn't know there were two lanes here, where's Nige from again? xD
 
hey guys! looks like you are having fun in the new miats. I havent gotten the new dlc yet, but am thinking about snagging it soon. Will try to join some practice lobbies!
 
That would be sick man!

btw, are you getting down on some BF3?

Hope to see you around smashing it up soon.
 
Finally finding a rhythm on this track. Changed up my line a bit, and concentrated on getting out of some of the corners better, and with less understeer. New PB of 2:04.3, which isn't the fastest out there, but I am happy with it at this point. Best part is that it was during a race, and was followed by :04.5, another :04.5, and then an :04.6. So consistency is starting to come into play. I hope! LOL.

Myspace is still around? :lol:

Is that possible?
 
In other news, I glanced an S2000 rocking almost exactly Brosif's trademarked color scheme in the wild:

I am still going through the 20+ pages of thread since my absence.

The time limit for race finish should be set longer to allow us slow drivers time to finish.

That was a mistake on Forced's part. I'll be running the D2 rooms from now on, so it won't be a problem.

Edit: I see we're starting to rub off on people. WSGTC picked up themselves a title sponsor ;)

You can export the pics to the XMB, and then from there upload to FB. Of course, this is from a PS3. Now, from a PC, you just copy the pic from the XMB to the PC and then to FB. It would be better to upload race videos instead, but I have no capture card so its a NO for me.
